Dear All:

I am not able to concentrate on Mindfulness/Meditation,sometimes I could centralize though not all the time.
My mind is always wandering past/further thoughts. My palms are always sweaty.

Request your help with precious inputs. Thanks in advance

Hi cielo,
Welcome to the forum.
How long have you been practicing?
The mind will wander, no matter how long you have been practicing. Notice that the mind has wandered and bring your attention back to the object of your awareness - breath, sound, body sensations etc.
If your palms sweat, bring your attention and curiosity to that.
Best,
Jon

Thank you for the response.

I have been doing the mindfulness ON and OFF.

Sure I will follow the suggestions that you recommended.

When did you first try mindfulness?
